Reunion News
50th Reunion, June 2016
Our reunion planning group for our Zoomed 55th in 2021 included Tom Riddell, Dare Thompson, Jill Grubb, John Wehmiller, Bob Levering, Jody Williams, and Tom Webb. The Alumni Office has provided Zoom support for activities and events, which have ranged from “academic” affairs such as John Morrow's discussion "A Warning from Weimar" on April 19, 2021 to social gatherings (cocktail hours, discussion of various topics), to artistic endeavors including FREEBO and Alice Howe's concert May 11, 2021. We also enjoyed a discussion of the documentary "The Boys Who Said No", which Bob Levering helped produce and Michael Ferber and Bob Eaton '65 appeared in.
Our class website (Swarthmore66.com) remains a good place to be in touch with each other via its private messaging when you don’t have a classmate’s email address. Check out also swarthmore.edu/alumni.
We want to remind you that our 50th Reunion Class Gift of the Class of 1966 Summer Internship and Mentorship Fund is still growing at just over $181,000 with a goal of reaching $250,000. You are encouraged to contribute to it along with your annual giving to the Swarthmore Fund. Each summer the Class of 1966 Fund pays Swarthmore students who mentor members of the Chester Children’s Chorus participating in the Swarthmore Science For Kids program. We will soon be updating you on CCC activities, some of which you can see in the video from its 25th anniversary gala from a couple of summers ago. Great to know that our activism in Chester in the early 1960s can manifest today as support for the children in this community program.
Please contact me (508-336-4244) and others on our committee if you have any questions or suggestions.
Good to see many of you at Alumni Weekend 2022 last May.
